NEBRASKA REPUBLICAN U.S. SENATOR PETE RICKETTS BLOCKED AN ATTEMPT BY SENATE MAJORITY LEADER CHUCK SCHUMER OF NEW YORK AND FELLOW DEMOCRATIC SENATOR MARTIN HEINRICH OF NEW MEXICO TO PASS A BILL RICKETTS SAYS INFRINGED UPON THE RIGHTS OF LAW-ABIDING GUN OWNERS.
RICKETTS SAYS SCHUMER BROUGHT UP A BILL CALLED THE “BUMP ACT,” THAT HE CLAIMED WILL BAN BUMP STOCKS, BUT IF YOU ACTUALLY READ THE BILL, THAT’S NOT WHAT IT DOES:
BUMP4 OC……….SAFER TO SHOOT. :25
RICKETTS SAYS THE BILL IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL, AND MANY NEBRASKA VETERANS, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO ARE DISABLED, HATE THE BILL:
BUMP5 OC…..FOR OUR CONSTITUTION. :17
RICKETTS SAYS SCHUMER KNOWS THE BILL WILL NOT PASS:
BUMP6 OC……DOESN’T DO THAT. ;19
RICKETTS SAYS THE BILL WAS A SHOWBOAT EFFORT WITH VAGUE LANGUAGE TO BAN AS MANY FIREARMS ACCESSORIES AS POSSIBLE.
